it is the object of my invent-ion to provide a device that will hold a napkin and at the same time hold a visiting card or a place marker for diners at a dinner table.

it is the further object of my invention to provide a place marker and napkin holder combined, the napkin being on one side and the place marker, or card on the reverse side.

it is the primary object of my invention to so construct the device that the card cannot slip out with ordinary use.

For illustrating my invention the accompanying drawings, in: I

Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the napkin holder, and place marker.

Fig. 2 shows a vertical view of the holder.

i ig. 3 shows a cross section of the holder.

in Fig. 1 number 1 is a rectangular piece oi metal, preferably highly polished and plated; number 2 is a spring made from one piece of metal so curved that said spring 2 exerts a pressure on one side sullicient to hold a card against the side of the rectangular piece 1. and allowing ample room on the reverse side for the purpose of holding linen, such articles as napkins and the like.
